A collection of short fiction by emerging talent, Drew Pisarra evoking manifestations of eros, amor, and agape that gleefully defy, refuse, subvert, and annihilate the expectations of the heteronormative, cisnormative, any-normative world.

"Darkly compelling and driven by a powerful, page-turning momentum." 
-Kevin Barry 
Author of City Of Bohane & Night Boat to Tangier 
'The Tangle Box is compelling. A subtle and complex portrait of crisis and all that ripples out from it, drawn with sensitivity and care.' 
-Helen Mort

'I read The Tangle Box in one gulp, start to finish. I could not put it down. It is a great book

-Aiden O'Reilly 
Author of Greeting Hero 
A Story You Will Never Forget: 
At the centre of this novel is a suppressed memory of the day Maria and Caroline O'Neill disappeared. In returning to his childhood home, Dan O'Neill attempts to recall what happened there and the consequences that followed. 
At its heart, The Tangle Box is a story of hope and triumph, that has captivated its early readers. One reviewer said of it, 'once started, I couldn't put this book down.' 
The Tangle Box is a tightly written debut, narrated in first person by the protagonist and takes us on a journey that begins on a day when Dan O'Neill heard a scream and saw blood, but beyond that, he remembers nothing.
